Does anyone have any recommendations for issue tracking for homelab setups? I’m sure I could host some Jira clone but that feels overkill for what I’m doing, and something like MediaWiki is too general purpose.

I’m hoping to track future project ideas (Install Jellyfin / Sonarr, etc) and issues with my smarthome (Fireplace Light not accepting color changes via Google Assistant). Ideally with some kind of organization to it (priorities, subitems, etc).

Yeah I could use plaintext, but that’s no fun :)

    I also use gitea, in a bit unstructured way. I do have a dedicated project which I use for project “management” (I.e. dump ideas about new services, new tools to write, improvements and sometimes bugs to fix), I also use repo specific issues for things that concern that particular repo (I have terraform repos, ansible repo, code repos, kubernetes/flux repos etc.). I also use taskwarrior for my actual to do list, which is more general than my homelab.

    The main point for me is just not to forget about stuff, but I don’t want to do issue tracking in a way that feels like my second job. For this gitea projects work quite nicely, and they are easily tied to PRs, so that I can go back and easily cross reference what I did for a specific issue.
